Flashback Friday: Euro AP1 Hits the Street and Track
Dual-purpose builds are all the rage, but this killer AP1 is nicer than most.
Dual Purpose Build
It's a goal that many, many S2000 owners go after with their own individual builds - track capable, yet streetable and mostly OEM. And for good reason. Most of us use our Hondas as primary transportation, or just simply don't want to have to haul them to the track. And those reasons were the motivation behind Anualmix's excellent AP1 build that we watched come together right here in the forums.
Pre-Modded
The OP fell in love with the S2000 way back in 1999 but didn't actually get his hands on one until 2014. At the time, it already sported a few minor mods - Kosei K1 TS 17" wheels, an AP1 lip, OEM trunk spoiler, Eibach springs, red NSX logos, and a SuperSprint exhaust.

Upgrade Me
The OP wasted no time hooking up with fellow enthusiasts at some local shows. Nor began making the car his own by adding a set of his dream wheels - bronze Volk CE28N pieces wrapped in Advan AD08R rubber. Soon after, he upgraded the handling of his car by installing a set of Tein Monoflex coilovers.

Keep on Rolling
Still, the mods just kept coming. Soon, the OP had some OEM side strakes and a diffuser in hand. Next, some Spoon goodies including brake calipers and fresh rotors. And for the interior, a set of Recaro Pole Position seats and a Tegiwa seat rail and seat belt extender.

Living the Dream
Since its completion, the OP has done nothing but drive and enjoy his dream car. From the looks of his build thread, he rotates his time between attending every single car show local to him and hitting the track. And that, friends, is the very definition of dual-purpose!
